There are all sorts of stats about the forum buried in the Admin CP. I'd love to make those available to everyone, but I haven't really found an add-on that does it well. But, I'm a stats geek, so I might bump this thread from time to time with useless tidbits that I find interesting.

I think that posting might start to go up a little, the Monday night game will probably bring a good thread to start the season and there's a little more optimism going into the year. I don't know if it'll be enough to cover 80000 posts but if they go on a run who knows what will happen. And theres also the Tebow factor.

Well, we've definitely slowed down this year. I guess the offseason is less interesting when there's not a new regime in town. Anyway, here's the latest chart:

It'll be interesting to see how things shape up when the season gets going. Currently, we're about 80k lower than we were at this point last year, so I'm curious to see if the gap widens or shrinks as the season starts.

Well, I assume the 495859 threads made by drafturbators about Cassell and Tyson last year had something to do with the number of posts.

Well it's not every year you hire a 3 time super bowl GM. I think the excitement has gone down a bit but an exciting season will make this place more interesting.

That's not surprising at all really, this place has been fairly slow all summer.

"He had no teeth, and he was slobbering all over himself. I'm thinking, 'You can have your money back, just get me out of here. Let me go be an accountant." I can't tell you how badly I wanted out of there."Denver rookie QB John Elway, on Jack Lambert, after Lambert and the Steelers knocked Elway out of his first game as a pro (1983).

No major changes this past month. Here's the latest graph before the season really ramps up:

One thing that isn't shown on that graph that I find interesting is that our average daily users stat is so far this year is virtually identical to last year. However, we're always busier in the fall, so that means we'll probably have a higher daily user count this year than we did last year once the year ends.

Translating all that, we actually have more active users this year than last year. We just aren't posting as much.
